Expenses - Option to include employee's expenses on customer's invoices
Most businesses have their employees incur expenses, such as mileage, which are chargeable to their clients. This means that the expenses need to both be added to invoices to clients and paid back to employees. This should really be done by simply getting employees to submit their expenses using, for example Hubdoc. However, at the moment, the systems available allow to to only one of the 2 things described above thus creating a lot of unnecessary admin work and potential inconsistencies between what has been charged to clients and what has been paid to employees.
In large companies there is…

UK Payroll - Remove past employees from reports
Can you please give the option to inactivate past employees/leavers from payroll summary when doing reports. Every employee we have ever had is coming up on the report each time.
Also how do I set up overtime payments to stay on employee profile instead of using the drop down menu every week.

UK Payroll - True Potential Pension - Workplace pension filing CSV download
We would like to suggest an enhancement to the Xero payroll software that could significantly improve its functionality for our company.
Currently, Xero offers download options for various pension providers, but we've noticed that True Potential is not among them.
We propose the addition of a CSV download option specifically for the True Potential pension provider.
Given that Xero already possesses the necessary data, incorporating this feature would eliminate the need for manual data entry and formatting, reducing the risk of errors and saving valuable time.
Benefits of this enhancement:
Accuracy: Automated data transfer minimizes the potential for mistakes during…

UK Payroll - Notifications to disappear for all users once action has been taken
At the moment when one staff member accesses notifications on the main Xero dashboard and actions it i.e tax code changes the notification will not disappear for all users on the Xero subscription. It would be a good idea that this could disappear for all users once actioned to completion to ensure that work is not duplicated by two or three other staff checking that same notification.

Expenses - Feature to identify if a transaction is tax deductible
Create a feature to identify whether an expense is tax deductible or non-tax deductible under Bill, Expense, and Journal. This will be extremely beneficial to the SME Accountant when preparing tax computations.

UK Payroll - PAYE payment date set
Add a date option on the Taxes and Filings tab to add the PAYE payment date. This would easily show if the payment has already been set in advance without having to log into internet banking to double check.

Payroll - Feature for Cayman Islands
I'm an experienced chartered accountant relatively new Xero user. I'm flummoxed by the inclusion of payroll transactions in the "bills to pay" section. While the detail is hidden from some users, some personal payroll transactions (related to overpayment) have become viewable by users without payroll access. Even summary transactions should not be viewable by people without payroll access.
All payroll transactions should be in a separate section to avoid confusion and any breach of privacy.
I cannot, for the life of me, see the rationale for including payroll transactions in this area in the first place.
1 voteHi Steve, appreciate it hasn't been too long since I last updated you here. I wanted to round back with an update as we;re making changes to Global Pay Run. Meaning this product will be retired from April 2026.
With no plans for developing Xero payroll specifically for other regions at this time we'll shift your idea to Not planned, however I'd recommend exploring our Xero app store where we have multiple payroll app partners that integrate with Xero and could meet the needs of your business.

AU Payroll - Automatically email payslips
Hi
There is a suggestion to add the function of automatically email employee payslips to their email address instead of spending time to manually do it again and this should be restricted for permitted user access.
access.77 votesThanks for your patience, it’s been a little while since our last update, so we wanted to check in. We can see this idea has been steadily gaining support. Our product team are keeping an eye on this idea and we will continue to share updates as things evolve.

AU Payroll - Next employee button on employment information screen
Currently we can search employee's data by using the dropdown arrow and selecting a specific employee. Can we also have the option for an arrow which allows us to simply scroll through each employee's record rather than having to use the dropdown option each time
9 votesHi there, we appreciate you raised this a little while ago. This isn't something we have plans for in the near term.
Not getting a lot of support from other members we’ll soon remove this from Product ideas. If it’s still highly valuable to you, welcome to start it again and see if it gets renewed interest.

NZ Payroll - Automatically upload recurring jobs
It would be very helpful if we could bulk upload recurring jobs!
We are having to manually add recurring jobs for Annual Returns and this can be time consuming6 votes -
UK Payroll - Don't update previous payslips when employee details change
Old payslips should retain the correct postal address for the employee for that time period. Don't update the previous payslips, just move forward with the new address for new payslips. People use their payslips for various different reasons, and tracking/validating their address history etc can be one of them!

NZ Payroll: To be able to backdate a change in employees pay
I would like to have the ability to reflect a new increase from the agreed-upon date. Often, salary reviews occur after the financial year-end and need to be backdated. However, Xero does not allow for backdating when other payroll systems do. You have to make a note of the actual start date, which isn't reflected in any reporting, making it not very useful.
Additionally, there should be the ability for an advanced support person to modify information, enabling them to roll back a change. I recently encountered an issue where third-party software changed the review date of a salary to…

AU Payroll - Super Payment Authorisation via Xero Verify
I need to be able to approve super when I am travelling and do not have access to text messages. It is most inflexible that there is only one method for doing this! Can the Xero Verify App not be used for auto super approvals too? Then I only need wifi.
Or, can text be received to whatsapp instead?
11 votesThanks for sharing your idea for alternative methods to approve auto super batch payments.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it.
In the meantime, Auto super payments must be approved using the authorisation code sent via SMS.
If needed, both the current approver and subscriber can update the approval details in the event the current approver is not available.

UK Payroll - Change payroll journal date
The Payroll Journal dates are currently fixed to be the Pay Date, which is incorrect for any business that has hourly paid employees which must pay after end of month, when all hours are calculated.
Every month all of our P&L figures are wrong because of this. Nobody wants to have to waste time doing loads of manual journals every month, which have the potential for mistakes, when Xero has created a system which is supposed to automate this process.
Others have raised it but Xero never replied, see link at the bottom below.
The solution is:
Create "Payroll Journal…

Expense Claims - More functionality
Xero expenses has been with us for 5 years. There have been no significant feature upgrades despite us all paying extra for the privilege.
Basic functionality like searchability, proper alignment with bill functionality to search suppliers and see total engagement with suppliers, ability to include attachments (e.g. bill documents from expenses) to pass through to customer invoices, ability to add a markup to expenses (e.g. for common cost plus models) etc. - NONE, not a little, nothing, zilch, nada of this has been actioned by Xero and nobody seems to be available or interested in discussing it.

AU Payroll - Remove past employees from drop-down menu in payroll reports
It would be great to be able to remove past employees from the drop-down menus when generating Payroll reports. This would be particularly helpful for businesses who employ a lot of staff members, especially if there's a high churn rate.
